Hardly a great day I'd say with Leeds winning

And yet again they score with their only 2 attempts on target. Seems like they and Reading are riding their luck even more than we have been (see Reading missing their last 2, maybe 3, pens but then scoring the rebound...?).
I think we have to stop with the 'they won't be consistent enough to get 87-plus points' stuff. Both look to be in this race for the long haul.
How exciting ...and very annoying

You knew full well what I meant.

I didn't. With hindsight I guess you were saying how NSC would feel if we won, not how you'd feel?

I think that's pretty unlikely - Reading & Leeds have 17 games left each, meaning they can get a max of 106 and 105 points respectively.

Lol are you ill?

I don't know who Aswell is.

He's that referee, isn't he? Stuart... :lol:

Only just.......

Leeds are now just 8/1 to finish top two, and we're down to 13/2 to miss out.

Thunder Bolt · Feb 2, 2017

I look at it this way. Win, lose or draw tonight, we'll still be top of the league.

This is a nice thought.

This will be the year 4 teams finish with 100+ points...you mark my words, it's our lot in life. Who will finish in what order though?

So Leeds, with 17 games left (51 points max), need 46 points to get to 100. Don't think so somehow.

jimhigham · Feb 2, 2017

Having put 60 points on the board already, it's probably enough for us to draw matches with our immediate challengers, as we should pick up the wins we require against teams further down the table. If our competitors don't gain ground on us when we play each other then we will be hard to catch.

I'll take a draw tonight if need be. Just please don't lose.

If this is to be believed it looks like cracks are opening at the Toon..........

As for us, all I'm prepared to say right now is that we won't get relegated and will almost certainly be in the top 6.

Lets hope that you can say that on 30th April after the Bristol City game,I think that you will.

Perez's miss is particularly wonderful

Pavilionaire · Feb 2, 2017

Last week I suggested Lua Lua would have been a useful bench option vs Cardiff only to be told we were right to get rid as he'd done nothing for months, then his wonderful cross last night cost Newcastle 2 points and - who knows - that 2 points might give us promotion or even the title.

Tonight is a great opportunity to stamp our authority on this division and I'll be interested to see how our players react to that opportunity.

So we were right to get rid then.

And some;

KLL's three handy QPR contributions to date, are as follows:

Reading 0 - 1 QPR - came on after 73 minutes, and helped to hold on to the lead.
QPR 1 - 1 Fulham - came on after 83 minutes, and helped to see out the game.
Newcastle 2 - 2 QPR - came on after 74 minutes, with Newcastle winning 2-1 and set up the last minute equalizer.

:clap2:

Keep up the fine work Kaz.

Hope Holloway knows he can't play more than 20 mins a game otherwise he is likely to pick up an injury and be out for months...
